When I start my Abarth (semi auto) up, there is a whirring sound which sounds a lot like a gear box in reverse.
I don't think it can be the gear box as it does it in neutral whilst idling.

It sounds like it's coming from the engine and gets louder as the revs increase.
It sounds a like it may be a belt rubbing against plastic. Could this be the case?


Thanks

Mine does something similar to that, I have worked out that the altinator is on its way and the bearings are making the noise. Sounds a little like a supercharer at the moment haha. Check out your altinator and see if it is that.
